Hello, Sunshine!
It is time for that personal introduction that I promised you. As previously stated, my name is Kim. I am Iowa born, raised, and currently living. Go Cyclones! As you have probably already figured out, I am a create-from-home mom, think work-from-home mom but with a lot of crafting.
A little bit about the home life, I have been happily married to my amazing husband for almost 11 years. He blessed me with 3 bonus children and we added 2 more to the bunch. We love to do a variety of family activities from lazy Sundays to hockey Saturday nights. In the summer, you can catch us all in the pool. My husband and I have begun coaching/managing some of our kids’ sports. He had taken a 9 year break after his debut as a youth soccer coach until basketball this year. Luckily, my creations travel with me to cross country meets, basketball games, track meets, softball/baseball games, football games, music performances, and all the other activities in which my kids are participating. I am the mom that cheers really really loud for every kid. I try to never miss a chance to show some school spirit and sport some black and gold or blue and gold creations.
As for some personal preferences, I listen to a large library of true crime podcasts while I work. I am a true Crime Junkie…I have listened to every episode at least once. I, also, enjoy reading a good book. I have recently mastered reading an e-book on my tablet while working on a repeat pattern. I will say that I cannot read as fast, but I can still read! My genres of choice include historical fiction, thriller, true crime (I know that is a huge shocker), and history. My television watching ranges from Supernatural to Mysteries at the Museum to you guessed it, true crime. Other activities I enjoy include walking inside or outside, playing my Nintendo Switch, trivia games, and hanging out with the family.
I am sure that you will learn more about me and mine as I continue to add to the blog and explain the what, where, when and whys of my creations with you.
Sprinkle the world with sparkle! -Kim
